Danielle was very easy to communicate with, and we are very grateful for the peace of mind she gave us in watching our dogs while my fiancé and I worked long shifts. I could tell That she truly enjoys interacting with dogs, and from the pictures and texts she sent it was obvious that our dogs were comfortable with her and enjoyed her visits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again to care for them.

Poseidon had a great time and burned a lot of energy walking with her. She mixed it up well between walks and a visit to the dog park, and gave good reports on the walks.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background as a veterinary student and my daily hands-on experience with animal care. I’m trained to recognize subtle changes in health and behavior, and I’m comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to seniors who need a gentler approach. One of my dogs regularly comes to school with me to help teach physical and orthopedic exams, so compassionate handling and low-stress interactions are second nature in my home. I’m also experienced with puppy socialization, reading body language, and keeping multi-pet households peaceful and enriched. Safety is a priority in my household! Overall, I offer a calm, animal-savvy environment backed by veterinary training and a genuine love for helping pets feel safe, happy, and understood My schedule does become a bit more tight in the new year due to finishing my clinical rotations that can very long days. I also ride my horse, who lives in the Williston area, every other day. I have two friendly dogs. One of them is lovingly called “the nanny” because she’s so caring and takes every dog under her wing. She comes to school with me to help teach students how to perform physical and orthopedic exams, so she’s used to just about everything—and she has an adorable smile with only a few teeth. My puppy is energetic, playful, and very well socialized. My backyard isn’t fenced, but we take my dogs on long walks to help burn off their energy (and mine!). Inside, I have an open living room with a dog bed roughly the size of an Alaskan king, perfect for group naps. I also have a screened-in porch that gives all the animals safe “outdoor time” without the risks of being outside. I keep very few plants in the house because I’m overly cautious about pets chewing on something that might make them sick.

About: Hi pet parents! I’m an aspiring veterinarian, currently pursuing my vet degree, and caring for animals is truly my passion. I also volunteer regularly at shelters, where i’ve gained hands-on experience with pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. At home I have dogs, cats, rabbits + too many farm animals to count! With that, I am comfortable caring for all kinds of animals not just cats and dogs! I am currently unavailable Monday and Wednesday 10-3, I will be in class at that time but I am available before and after class on these days:). I take the time to get to know each pet I have the pleasure of looking out for, adjusting to each pets personality, temperament, and special needs. I look forward to providing knowledgeable and attentive care to your fur baby. I pride myself on being reliable through the process, updating pet parents with pictures and videos, and keeping clear communication while you’re away.

About: At home I have 5 cats and 2 dogs. I love each one of my pets and their unique personalities, and they are my biggest responsibility. I understand how difficult it is to leave a loved pet and know they are in good hands, so I treat each pet with the love and respect as if they were mine. I have a very flexible schedule, and can adjust to any accommodations. Available weekdays, weekends, days and nights! I am a student and work with pets as well as babysitting. For dogs I am more than happy to walk them, clean up after them, give them food and water and play with them as much as wanted! Same thing for cats as well as litter cleaning 😊

About: I grew up on a farm and still do. I’ve only started dogging sitting/ boarding dogs other than my family’s dogs for a few years now. I’ve noticed that the dogs, I’ve take care of are really comfortable with me, while their owners are away. My goal every time, I’m taking care of new dog is that they feel safe with me. I’m also a part-time nanny right now, my schedule is flexible, so it’s just communicating a day and time that works for both of us! I don’t usually crate dogs, that’s more on the owner’s preference and what their comfortable with. There are 5 other dogs on the property that my family own. They have their own enclosure outside and I don’t allow the dogs I’m taking care of to see or interact with them as I’m trying to keep a safe environment for all animals.

About: I have taken care of multitude of animals since I was 7. I have a true passion for any and all animals. Ever since I can remember I’ve had snakes, horses, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, and hedgehogs. I’ve house sitted, I’ve walked animals, fed animals, provided medicine and other types of medical care to animals. I’m truly available for anything and will help when needed! I’m currently working part time. My schedule varies but usually I’m schedule 7am -3 on Monday, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I also have college classes on Tuesday’s and Thursdays from 10am -2:15pm. I can still provide care on those days as long as we can work around my schedule! In my home, I feed my dogs, walk my dogs, play with them, I also feed and play with my cats, I have to clean out my snake enclosures, I feed the chickens, and I also feed and play around with our bunny. I had one client for a while and I used to stay at their house while also going to work, but I would take care of their older dog who struggled with dementia and ear problems. I would give him medicated baths and rub ear drops in his ear to make sure they were clean. I also would do small chores around their house or any chores they asked me to do. I would spend the night until they came home! I have a lot of animals but I currently have none living with me since I’ve moved for college, except for one cat but it’s my roommates.

About: Hi my name is Lindsay! I am currently a University of Florida Undergraduate studying Health Science and Deaf and Hearing Sciences.

I'm experienced in walking dogs safely and making sure they get the right amount of exercise for their breed and energy level. I also understand how important playtime is—not just for physical activity, but for mental stimulation and happiness. I always ensure pets are in a secure, stress-free environment and treated with the same love and care I give my own.

About: I love all animals especially dogs. I currently have one spoiled rotten 50 pound lap dog at home. She is an indoor dog that's treated like my child. We also have two Great Pyrenees that are working dogs to protect our livestock. I’m back in business with pet sitter being my primary job which gives me even more flexibility in my schedule. I love all animals and experienced with cats, dogs, horses, cows, and chickens. Currently not accepting dog boarding in my home this may change in the future. Upon booking we will have a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit for each other. Once booked I will follow whatever requests you have.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life. I've owned a teacup Yorkie and mini dachshunds. I've trained my dogs to sit, stay, roll over and paw. I took a class on animal behavior and training in college so I am well equipped with caring for and understanding pet behavior 🐕‍🦺🐾 I am a student and have a part time job. I am able to watch your dogs overnight and have the ability to walk and feed them during the day. I will ensure that they are in a loving and safe environment. I don't have any pets in home. I have open space in the living room for your dog to spread out and explore. I have a small yard in the front of the house for the dog to go to the bathroom. I will allow your dog to go on frequent potty breaks and will walk them so they can explore the area and get some exercise. I value the safety of your dog and making sure your dog is happy and comfortable while they stay with me.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I specialize in providing calm, loving, and reliable care, especially for larger dogs. I’m known in my Gainesville community for being attentive, detail-oriented, and deeply committed to each pet’s comfort and happiness. As a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so you can expect frequent photos, videos, and updates throughout every visit. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed, and that you feel complete peace of mind. I have been taking care of large dogs for over 20 years, primarily standard poodles but I adore all breeds. I am known in Gainesville's Woodland Villa Apartments complex for my reputation as a great doggy and kitty caregiver. I have worked with several different canine clients, from large Dobermans to medium Pitbulls to a small corgi-beagle mix, I have worked with all sorts of pups! I have 3 cats, one of which turned 22 years old (human years) on October 22, 2025. I have had her and been taking care of her since she was 2 years old. I believe love and extraordinary care can truly make pets happier and last longer. After all, I have seen it with my own! I am happy to spend time with, walk, play, feed, and wholeheartedly love your pet(s) while you are away! I work hard to make it an easy and relaxing process for you, so that you can leave feeling your furry friend is in great hands! I will ask questions and make sure all the details are there, so you don't have to. I also am happy to help with other smaller friends! In my caregiving experience, I have fed frogs, tadpoles, and plants, alongside the dogs and cats! If you have another living creature that needs some attention and upkeep, I am so happy to offer my care as part of my services! **Please look forward to lots of videos, photos, and updates of your happy pet(s)!!!** As a pet owner myself, I know how much it matters to stay connected and updated! You will ALWAYS be in the know! I am super flexible and I am a full time remote student, so I am happy to work on schoolwork while I hang out with your pet(s) for longer stays (up to 8 hours) or I can easily plan my schoolwork around when I will be visiting (I will do this automatically for visits less than 2 hours)! Your preferences are what I will be happy to work around! For all clients, I require a planned meet and greet where I will meet your pet(s) and determine whether we'll be a compatible team. For dogs, I ask to go on a short walk during this time with the owner(s). During this time, we will go over their routine, all no-nos, food, treats, toys, emergency info, and any additional information you think I should know. With your permission, I will record this session of my phone so that I can generate a transcript and make a care routine document for you, so that you won't have to. You will also get a copy of this document that you can pass to others!
